Oil Residual Layers in Water-Oil Displacement Flow

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
This paper investigates on the water-oil displacement flow in downward inclined pipe, which is a practical application in chemical and oil industry. The experiments were conducted in a 3.5m long 15mm inner diameter downward transparent pipe. The pipe can be flexibly tilted to specific inclination and water inlet velocity was controlled by a needle ...

Using mechanical testing to assess the effect of lower-limb prosthetic socket texturing on longitudinal suspension.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
To function effectively, a lower limb prosthetic socket must remain securely coupled to the residual limb during walking, running and other activities of daily living; this coupling is referred to as suspension.

RESIDUAL DISPLACEMENT RESPONSE SPECTRUM AND ITS APPLICATION

open access: yesDoboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1994
構造物が大規模地震を受けて非線形域の応答を生じた場合には, 構造物には残留変位が生じる. したがって, 構造物に許すじん性率をあまり大きくすると, 地震後に構造物には大きな残留変位が生じ, 復旧不能となる. 本研究は, バイリニア型復元力特性を有する各種の固有周期, じん性率を有する1自由度系に生じる残留変位から残留変位応答スペクトルを提案し, この特性を検討するとともに, 提案値に基づいて鉄筋コンクリート橋脚に予想される残留変位を検討したものである.

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Influence of thermo-mechanical material properties on the structural response of a welded butt-joint by FEM simulation and experimental tests

open access: yesForces in Mechanics, 2021
This paper deals with the development of a Finite Element (FE) model for the simulation of a two-passes V-groove butt weld joint. Specifically, in order to reduce the computational costs and the efforts aimed to the numerical evaluation of residual ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Geophysical interpretation of GPS loading deformation over western Europe using GRACE measurements

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2016
We analyze more than 10 years of Global Positioning System (GPS) height residuals and vertical displacements predicted from surface mass loading observed by the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) for 36 International GNSS Service (IGS ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
